Blame it on #Gej we need change ... VOTE BUHARI

my friend shatap ya mat

This same thing happened to me. He saw my compete info in the nysc year book. He requested for my email and sent me a job application from with AGIP header,i was pretty shocked. I fill everything and submitted then he asked for funds which I would be paying.

To my greatest suprise, my brother works with AGIP and he didn't tell am about any opening, I began to wonder how they knew about the opening which my bro didn't.

All in all, I didn't fall prey for their scam. You can only get scammed be these people if you aren't smart or If you are greedy.

Modified.

Finally I'm unbanned. I await the next ban

It not new scam bro. Such scam has been on for time immemorial. My uncle almost got scam for 35 million for such supply scam years back. The bottom line is ask questions and make your findings in life. Never for once believe what you hear or what you are told until you make your findings. Never assume you know people bro, ask them questions and if they are not asnwering your questions, time to let them go. That saves you lots of stories for the gods

This scam has been around since 1999. What surprised me was that they knew my name. There is this chinedu chap from NNPC, another Pastor Micah from Port Harcourt . The variations are just too much. I finally found out from a police friend of mne how these scammers know your name. They get it from BULK SMS sellers. and companies who run shortcodes for promos of major businesses. Nbl, Nigerian idols, project fame etc.

No job should be paid for , no matter what. Even if na #20!

I was once a victim of dis kinda poo..
Bt d story is kinda different



Loose 40k

I got same call from same person last week same number and same technique he stylishly ask my present location and told me get the stock from a warehouse manager at igando lagos then he gave that same number, i ignored Him not calling any warehouse manager cos i knew it was a scam......
Now how did they get my contact from investigation i discovered that they get ones info by posting fake job opening and asking one to send cv to certain email address from there they get ones full details i also went ahead with my investigation and discovered that these guys are some jobless dude from portharcourt with cohort in lagos, having little knowledge in oil and gas processing and trying to scam despirate job seekers indirectly....SO NIGERIANS BEWARE!!!!!!!!

I also got a text from one of them ,
Here's my reply

francizy:
I just got a call this morning from someone that knew my name.



I posted this to make people aware that these scammers have taken a whole new dimension. They may even be someone you know, or have met before but can't really recall them. I posted this because I want you guys out there to be aware of demonic fellows like this because that guy sounded like he knew me in person. Had it been I didn't ask questions, I wouldn't have known he's just another scammer

Although I'm yet to get a job but I don't let desperation set in. Some people might have just given in to this cheap scam.

When will you learn?. They are people you met here on Nairaland. So, stop giving people wrong advise. Beware of people you meet in this forum. 99% of naija scammers use Nairaland like you do.

Anybody asking me to pay cash for a job,even if na 5h don jam tipper wey carry concrete. Anyway,where u c money wey u wan scam sef

Had a similar experience last wk. Mistery guy sent a text to me. Apparently he impersonated sum1 from my nysc yearbook and claimed he knew me. He gave me d no of an engineer who works in shell. dis so called engr had a strong local accent and asked me to send 25k. A whooping 25k ohh.dose guys hv mind sha.

Op what will happen if you decided to visit Julius Berger as he instructed you ?

I think it's this same guy who called me to supply 2way radio I guess he got my contact on olx and after he requested for some doc I don't av so I introduced him to my uncle as my boss cos he owns a big warehouse on the island, he got everything he requested for from my uncle and to our surprise he knew we got his pranks and luckily for my uncle he travelled to the UK and his mobile phone was with his driver who he called and collected my uncle's house address , u won't believe that he went into his house and rob him but fortunately he was away and the house was empty without anyone so pls everyone should be careful

Scamming are of different forms now, don't be surprised when you discover that these people are ones you know. Not only about job sef, you loaning your friend money and him refusing to pay back nkor?What do we call that? May God just direct us and make us sensitive.


Do not fall for any opening that requires you paying upfront

hmmmm, I also face a similar situation this week. I got a call from some one who claimed to be Benjamin okereke and that he also work with PHCN. He told me about a deal of supplying materials to PHCN.according to him, the materials will be brought at cheaper rate and be supplied to the company at a very profitable rate.........and bulabula....., I should get pen and paper to call him back so that he can give me the full details. I know it was a scam, I completely ignore that stupid fallow.
